Put simply, a charter bus (also called a motorcoach or coach bus) is a private transportation rental that can carry large groups of people over long distances and with a custom itinerary. They’re one of the most popular and efficient transportation options for groups, with a reputation for comfort and convenience for both short- and long-distance trips. With a charter bus rental on your side, your group can enjoy the ride and focus on making memories together while on the road!
When most people think of a charter bus, the first image that comes to mind is a large vehicle with a white or black body, undercarriage storage, and lots of windows. And for the most part, that’s what you’ll receive when you book a charter bus rental through Chula Vista Charter Bus Services! Our network of motorcoaches includes a variety of makes and models, so if you have a specific look or amenity in mind, our reservation team will work with you to find the right ride for your group.
There is no difference between a coach bus and a charter bus. Coach bus is simply another name for a charter bus.
The most common charter bus size is a 56-passenger motorcoach—though our network also includes 47-passenger and 52-passenger models for groups with unique headcounts. These large vehicles are ideal for large-scale trips like field trips, large wedding celebrations, and corporate events.
Most full-size charter buses can accommodate up to 56 passengers, while minibus rentals can typically accommodate anywhere from 18 to 35 passengers. You can also book a fleet of buses if you have a larger group and need multiple buses. Give our team a call at 619-373-8220 and we can discuss the best-sized charter bus for your needs.
Chula Vista Charter Bus Services can connect you to several different types of buses depending on your group size and itinerary. We offer 18-passenger minibuses for smaller groups, 56-passenger charter buses for larger groups, and several other bus rental options in between. Our team will also work with you to build a custom fleet if you have a large group that requires multiple vehicles.
Our charter buses can come with amenities like WiFi, power outlets, onboard restrooms, flatscreen TVs, and more. If you have specific requests, please let your representative know at the time of booking. We’ll be sure you have the best charter bus rental for your Chula Vista trip.
Most full-size charter buses come equipped with an onboard restroom. These restrooms typically include a toilet and sink, though some may include a small changing table. While onboard restrooms are convenient for minimizing pit stops during long road trips, they should not be used as a primary restroom for your trip. They are small and tend to fill up quickly, so we recommend using them for emergencies only.
Absolutely! Most of the buses in our network can include fast WiFi for streaming music, podcasts, and videos, checking your social feeds, and more while on the road. Let your reservation rep know if your group would benefit from internet connectivity during your travels, and we’ll pair you with a bus that has WiFi on board.
Yes! The majority of our charter bus and minibus rentals include individual power outlets for each passenger, making it easy to recharge devices between stops.
That depends on the type of bus you rent. A full-size charter bus can accommodate more luggage than a minibus. Large charter buses usually have a luggage compartment under the bus and a carry-on space above the seats. A minibus rental may not have an undercarriage storage area but will still have overhead storage for personal items. If you have a large group with lots of luggage, be sure to let your reservation specialist know. We’ll be sure you have the right bus rental to comfortably accommodate your luggage.
Yes, a driver is included with every charter bus rental. The driver will be operating your charter bus rental throughout your trip, but you will be responsible for securing lodging and meals for your driver if you have an overnight trip.
